Genesis 2:7
“Yahweh God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.”
This passage is from the second creation account in the book of Genesis, focusing on the detailed creation of humanity. It describes God (here called 'Yahweh God') forming the first human, Adam, from the earth and giving him life.
What does this origin story suggest about our connection to the physical world and to a source of life beyond ourselves?
